Three new teachers are in the Mc-
Einley building this year. . Elmer Erb
is the new principal of the High School,
Arthur Hawker is teaching the Inter-mediate
. grade and May Mover is in
charge of the Fifth grade.
The attendance of the school has been
somewhat increased - by the closing of
the Knowledge Hill school and bringing
the pupils of that school to Hershey.
The new High School room is not yet
furnished, but the seats have been or-dered
and are expected any time. The
improved building gives the school am-ple
room for their work. Some incon-venience
is caused by the lack of furni-ture
in the new rqoms, but when all is
completed the equipment will be modern
in every respect.
